You know, when it comes to movies, there usually isn’t much mystery involved. A film gets funding, a team gets put together, and a movie is either made or it isn’t. It’s usually that simple.
It'’s definitely not simple for the (possibly?) upcoming Jessica Chastain-led JFK thriller, Assassination, which was originally supposed to be directed by David Mamet. Mamet “stepped away” from directing and has been replaced by Rain Man director Barry Levinson. Mamet is still on as co-screenwriter with Nicholas Celozzi.
